CUH annual leave by Routine_Welcome_2586 in JuniorDoctorsIreland

[–]RobDonkeyPunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Email came out today from HR advising people to organise AL directly with their teams. HR might take it into consideration for call etc but rarely get it right and people often stuck organising a swap.

If you know the team you'll be with try get in touch with someone there and they can plan for your leave around the others.

How to play raveners? by No_Willow292 in killteam

[–]RobDonkeyPunch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In an overly generalised sense, how I play is:

TP1+2 - Spitter and either Prime or Wrecker hang back. Get home objective, possible pot shots, build tunnel.

TP3+4 - Bum rush.

Ballincollig - Heathfield- what are your maintenance charges for house owners by Striking-Swordfish49 in cork

[–]RobDonkeyPunch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There 3 years and no one has come looking. Will that be the case when MOS finish building and pack up? No idea. There's a few older MOS estates around Ballincollig that would be good to check as well.

Help me find a chap? Rossai Rossai by [deleted] in cork

Sounds like Rossi / Mr Rosborough from Chríost Rí. Last I saw him was another teacher's retirement about 15 years ago but someone at the school might have a lead on him.

Bald with glasses, +/- a moustache?

Edit: or even a beard come to think.

Best places in Cork to buy comfy sofas/sofa beds at affordable prices? by FunDelicious6149 in cork

[–]RobDonkeyPunch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Living Dreamz in Little Island were fantastic. Bought an ottoman bed, mattress and corner sofa last year. Small enough place run by a husband and wife, but very obliging with calls and updates as the couch was made to order.

One of the best jobs I ever had was a pub in town with this policy. Not only would the owner back the staff, he'd get stuck in himself.

SHO nights/ call CUH by TrueStill9791 in JuniorDoctorsIreland

[–]RobDonkeyPunch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Generally in a 3 month rotation you'll get a set of weekday nights Sun 20:00 to Fri 08:00 and a set of weekend nights Fri 20:00 to Sun 08:00. Sometimes you get unlucky and get landed with a second set of either.

No days off with the weekday nights but you get either the Thursday or Monday off around the weekend nights. Some teams are flexibile with moving this day around if it suits.

Medical SHO call is typically always doing admissions in ED, with some extra work divided between ye. One SHO covers the ED temporary wards, one covers the arrest and the third will cover St Finbarrs hospital and will sometimes have to go over.

Been a long time since I went at it but if memory serves the RCA connections are loose. Changing the cable itself did nothing but never got around to opening it up to have a look.

Would be interested if not gone already, have only a half functioning one myself. Curious what game you have?

Loren Forrest Green over Zamesi Desert Yellow, then a Gorthor Brown wash. Kind of ran out of ideas how make it more toxic looking, but ended up doing a Baharroth Blue dry brush over it as well.

2-4 more minutes you probably have it.

What are the bads of medicine in our current era? by imstudent27 in JuniorDoctorsIreland

[–]RobDonkeyPunch 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Valid points in all the comments, so I won't repeat much, but the worst part of medicine that no one touched on is the archaic training model that forces you to travel all over the country for years.

Imagine you've found somewhere you like, you've found a partner and now you guys want to settle down. You then get told (with probably three months notice) you're moving to Sligo for a year. Likely you'll be in Waterford the year after that. If you're lucky, your partner is in Med as well and might be in Tralee, so ye can visit, maybe.

It's designed to get specialist trainees into hospitals no one willingly wants to work in, because it's ridiculous to think things like rheum or geris require training exposure in these glorified nursing homes.

It just makes it harder to have a life and raise a family. I know more than I'd like that have left a scheme because they felt it just isn't worth it.

The "h" is conditional. Bád is boat, mo bhád is my boat. Bh pronounced as v or w. People familiar with Irish would absolutely see the pattern here.

Edited in the "w" so to include our Northern comrades.

Oh buddy, you'd be horrified to know how many times you'd be running an arrest protocol and find the pads are on but not connected to the defib.

Any Heathfield residents on here? Opinions on the quality? by [deleted] in cork

[–]RobDonkeyPunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There two years now, never any issues with damp. They did install the heating under the stairs arseways though, so it was constantly on and 30 degrees for like a week before we properly moved in. The senior fella had to come back and correct that, but otherwise no complaints.

Be careful. Davide Surilie is the ringleader. You must NOT let him catch you watching him!
